'The Animal' is Classic Barry Sadler!,
By Apollo Reader (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The moi: A novel of the Vietnam war (Hardcover)
Being a huge fan of this author's hugely successful Casca series, I happend upon this little gem in the library.
The Moi, or 'animal' in vietnamese language, is about what Sadler knew best - the vietnam war and the American fighting soldier. But there is a great twist. Instead of just showing and telling the reader about an American Green Beret's struggle as a POW, he also gives us great insight on the political and personal viewpoints of the 'enemy'. Great stuff. Barry Sadler proves once again here that he was at the top of his game - and had personal knowledge of such things as war. Along with its ramifications on 'both sides'. Often times hard to read of the American POW's abuse, still The Moi is a gripping tale of a man's inner strength when dealt a horrible hand, being caught by the Viet Cong and being humiliated and tortured and starved by a sadistic viet cong commander - who was fully trained by the US military itself! A must read. |
